I think we lose game 3, win game 4, and either close it out there or when we get back home in game 6. Orlando is a great team that has not been shooting well. If they get hot they can run us out of the building. We are playing great defense, but it will be easy to relax just a little and let them back in. If we close it out at home we really could hang #18 this year.

Anything can happen, we could drop 2 in our building.

Now why would you say that? We could possibly lose four straight. But I don't see any chance that we drop both, not after what we did to Cleveland and after the two wins at Orlando. It just isn't happening. A realistic worst case scenario is to go back to Orlando, but up 3-1.

We could and should and once again it'll be a test of our renewed focus if we can. They'll be even more motivated than they were the past game. We have so much room to play better. And we can't give up any more 4th quarter runs. On the homecourt fine but we can't allow that in Boston. Better clock management and they could have stolen either game at the last minute. We need to continue to keep them stymied. More double face palms from Van Gundy please!

I don't believe we will drop 2 in our building, I believe we will sweep and one of the games in Boston will be a blowout, probably Game 3.

What I was trying to throw out there was the Magic never expected to drop 2 games on their home floor.

We're going into Boston up 2-0, hardly expecting to lose on our home court, but it could happen.

I don't want it to happen, am not expecting it to happen, and don't believe it will happen.

Anything can happen in the playoffs...all those NHL away teams winning Game 7's on the road? Top seeded NBA teams in the East are struggling with a 4 seed?

And that is why they could come out firing and with urgency, and we need to withstand that and show pride to our home crowd and to ourselves.

Seriously, how do the Magic players not hang there heads when opposing teams make runs if there coach does it all the time? Its funny sometimes I just look at SVG on the bench and laugh, if you havent noticed watch him, if a opposing team drops a 3 he hangs his head, if they get a stop steal etc he panics shakes his head and pouts. He's the only coach ive seen panic the way he does almost to the point where it doesnt look healthy for him.
